Here’s a post launch blog post on Exoloper.

TLDR, sales didn’t go at all, but the receptions been alright!

Some thoughts on where I can take it in the future.

@anchorite Oooff! So sorry to hear that Matt, hope you turn it around. The free to anything is a huge issue though. I have a friend in the US who is a lecturer in one of the premiere design schools globally. Her biggest gripe? In a school where tuition costs way too much, students won't spend 20 a month (or whatever) for software subs; software that are tools of the trade. If it's not free, they don't use it and find a substandard free thing they can get by with.

@iamgerardthomas all part of it. Not every game can make money. I’ll take another swing.
